Every year, Amsterdam is visited by thousands of tourists from all over the world, all with their own budgets. Since Amsterdam offers hotels in all price classes, each and every tourist is guaranteed to find a good place to sleep, whether they have a lot to spend or not.

For those visitors who can really splash out and are willing to do so, there is the Amstel Inter Continental, in the very heart of the city: the best, the most luxurious and of course the most expensive of all. This is the hotel where film stars and royalty stay. It's very well located, near to the old centre, important theatres, museums, restaurants and clubs.

Dam and Surroundings

The Dam, with its square and Royal Palace, is one of the most-visited tourist areas in Amsterdam, and of course there are plenty of hotels around this area. Among the more expensive ones is the Crowne Plaza Amsterdam City Centre, not far from Central Station. From here you can easily get to the boats for a tour of the canals. Also close to the Station is Golden Tulip Barbizon Palace. On Dam Square itself there is the beautiful Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky. Die Port van Cleve is somewhat less expensive and is located just behind the Royal Palace and the famous Bijenkorf, just like the Tulip Inn Dam Square which also belongs in this price category. For those who are on a tight budget and yet want to stay in this part of the city, there are hotels like De Korenaer and De Stadhouder. Both are very centrally located and you can visit all major tourist places on foot from here. Also worth trying is De Gerstekorrel.

Leidseplein & Rembrandtplein

From Dam Square, it's not far to get to Leidseplein and Rembrandtplein. Both squares are really cozy in summertime, when the weather is nice and the terraces are full of people. This is also the place to be if you're into clubbing. In this area you can find expensive hotels such as the American Hotel and Amsterdam Marriott Hotel. You can also find hotels belonging to the Golden Tulip chain here. There are the Golden Tulip Amsterdam Centre and the Golden Tulip Schiller Hotel, right on Rembrandt Square. For the younger ones among us who like to go from youth hostel to youth hostel, there is the comfortable City Hostel Vondelpark, very close to the Vondelpark. Also in this area you can find the very reasonably priced Hotel Abba.

De Jordaan

Close by is the famous workers' district De Jordaan. This district used to be a rather tough area, but during the last couple of years it has become one of the most-wanted residential areas, full of yuppies, while the original inhabitants have moved away to more spacious areas on the outskirts. Close to this area you can find the Cok City Hotel.

Museumkwartier

The Museumkwartier is the area around Museumplein (Museum Square) where you find all of Amsterdam's major museums within walking distance, i.e. the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum and Stedelijk Museum (Municipal Museum). There are both expensive and more moderately priced hotels here. The Amsterdam Hilton and Bilderberg Garden Hotel are obviously among the more expensive ones, whereas the four-star AMS Hotel Lairesse is already a bit more moderately priced, just like the Ambassade Hotel along Herengracht. The Canal Crown Hotel and Cok Business Class Hotel are more or less equally priced, while the AMS hotels are less expensive. This chain has a number of hotels in Amsterdam, such as the AMS Hotel Holland, AMS Hotel Terdam and AMS Museum Hotel. For those who like to be in a quieter area, Hotel Heemskerk, behind the Concertgebouw (Concert Building) will do just fine.

River Gaasp & Airport Hotels

Along the river Gaasp you will find AC Hotel Amsterdam, and the less expensive Belfort Hotel which is located near the ring road. For the business traveller who needs to stay close to the airport, there is the Amsterdam Airport Schiphol Hilton, just two minutes from the main terminal. The rooms are all provided with soundproof windows, so don't worry about the noise. You can be in the city centre within 15 minutes. There is also the Sheraton Amsterdam Airport Hotel & Conference Center. Do keep in mind that most of the hotels in Amsterdam charge 5% city tax, which is often not included in prices of rooms given.
